Option and Result types?

[StunxFS]

Bait has option and result support?

Sadly Bait has no Option or Result types and no error handling yet.
However both types are planned to be implemented.

Ok, Bait seems like an interesting programming language, I could help you develop it too.

Do you know the Rivet programming language? You might also be interested 🤔

Thanks, feel free to contribute if you like. I'm happy to assist with any questions you might have.

Rivet looks interesting too. I'm looking forward to the selfhosted version!

[StunxFS]

Thanks 😁, and yes, Rivet will soon have a 100% functional self-hosted compiler, I just need to implement a codegen and that's it 🥳

Hi, I started working towards Result type a few days ago.
So it will be implemented soonish :)

Option types remain on the todo list tho

[serkonda7]

With the merge of #172, Result types and error handling is now merged 🎉

It might still contain some bugs an edge cases but is a good starting point.

Option types are not done but won't be prioritized for now as their functionality can be replicated using Result.

Perfect! 🥳
